The Immortal Warrior: From Reverse Engineering to Forging Swords for the Country

Chapter 61 The plane seems to have a soul

Zhao Bingkun smiled and said: "I know this!"

"Foreign lithography machines are quite expensive! It is said that a PAS series UV lithography machine with a 1-micron process costs hundreds of millions of dollars! Moreover, anyone who wants to buy it can buy it."

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Director Zhao seems to know a lot about photolithography machines."

"Actually, the most advanced photolithography machines besides us are still in China."

"However, the lithography machine technology of Footpot Country will soon be castrated by Robin."

"Currently, the most advanced photolithography machines in the world can only produce chips with a process of about 1 micron. Of course, they have also broken through the nanometer process in the laboratory, but they are not yet ready for mass production!"

"Our lithography machine is currently the only nanoscale lithography machine in the world! It can produce chips of 0.25 micron or even 0.18 micron level! If it is sold to the outside world, I estimate that someone will buy one for 10 billion U.S. dollars!"

"If Robin knew about it, he would probably go crazy! Because it will never allow any country in the world to surpass it in high-tech! It will take all high-tech into its own hands. Only in this way can it Maintain its hegemony!”

Zhao Bingkun nodded and said with a serious face: "Our country is much weaker than Robin now, so this lithography machine must be kept secret!"

"For this reason, this scientific research result cannot be made public for the time being, and your contribution, Comrade Zhipeng, cannot be publicly recognized for the time being."

"However, don't worry, the motherland and people will never forget your contribution!"

"One day, your name will be spread by the people!"

Zhang Zhipeng said with a smile: "Director Zhao, what did you say?"

"Honor or not, I actually don't care too much."

"I obey all arrangements of the motherland!"

"Whatever the country needs me to do, I will do it!"

The atmosphere has already reached this point, so Zhang Zhipeng naturally has some nice words to say.

Zhao Bingkun nodded happily and said: "Very good!"

"I know that Comrade Zhipeng's consciousness has always been very high!"

"Keep up the good work!"

“I hope to see the day when chips are mass-produced as soon as possible!”

In the following period, Zhang Zhipeng and his team continued to work hard.

Because the work of the chip industry chain has been arranged, Zhang Zhipeng's work focus has changed.

In addition to guiding and helping solve problems that arose during the construction of the chip production line, he also began to help Zheng Jingzhi tackle the avionics system of third-generation aircraft.

To this end, he and Zheng Jingzhi's team plunged into the laboratory and began a series of tentative modifications to the avionics system.

His transformation mainly focused on one focus: making the entire avionics system easier and smarter to operate, so that fighter pilots can respond to enemy situations as quickly as possible.

This requires connecting the various organic components of the avionics system with sensors equipped with microprocessors to form an organic whole. Finally, a CPU is used to process all the information transmitted from each part of the avionics system to help The pilot makes various operational judgments and can respond sensitively and quickly to the pilot's operations.

If this transformation model can be successful, it will undoubtedly improve the control of the aircraft by a leap, and at the same time, it can also greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the fighter aircraft.

In addition to this transformation, Zhang Zhipeng also needs to write an operating system suitable for aircraft.

This is also a very complicated job.

However, with the help of the system, Zhang Zhipeng's programming ability can still continue to improve through continuous research and speculation.

He quickly mastered the programming skills and experience required to write a simple operating system.

After repeated modifications and polishing.

It took Zhang Zhipeng about twenty days to finally get the operating system used for the avionics system.

In total, more than 20,000 lines of code were written for this system.

Being able to write a stable and reliable operating system with such a small amount of code is something that even the top programmers may not be able to do.

In order to match this operating system, Zhang Zhipeng added a small screen to the pilot's instrument panel. In this way, the information conveyed by various parts of the avionics system will be processed and displayed intuitively on the screen to help the pilot make various operational judgments.

As for the CPU and microprocessor chips needed to transform the avionics system, Zhang Zhipeng designed them and then produced them in the laboratory of Factory 618.

In this way, Zhang Zhipeng shuttled back and forth between the 618 Factory and the school laboratory day after day.

In a blink of an eye, the time came to the eve of the Spring Festival in 1991.

On this day, in the laboratory, Zhang Zhipeng assisted Zheng Jingzhi in connecting various parts of the avionics system in series with sensor connectors. After powering on, the host screen lit up and started working.

Zhang Zhipeng built a flight simulation cabin in the laboratory, which can completely simulate the various states of the aircraft in the air.

He tried it out and felt that the avionics system he helped Zheng Jingzhi integrate was quite easy to use. Various complex command buttons have now been simplified, greatly reducing the intensity and difficulty of the pilot's operations. , because there is a host to help him handle all aspects of the situation, he only needs to make decisive operations.

"Teacher, you see, I can only do this now."

"Come and experience it for yourself."

Zhang Zhipeng said to Zheng Jingzhi.

Zheng Jingzhi was beside him and was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.

Because, through Zhang Zhipeng's actions, the avionics system has indeed become more convenient and intelligent. The entire aircraft has been integrated in this way, and it has obviously formed an organic whole.

He smiled and nodded and said, "Okay! Young people still have ideas!"

"I'll give it a try too!"

"I personally flew an airplane back then. Compared with the airplanes now, the airplanes at that time were too crude to look like!"

Zheng Jingzhi enthusiastically experienced the aircraft avionics system integrated by Zhang Zhipeng.

After experiencing it, he praised it for its ease of use.

"Zhipeng, when you do this, the plane seems to have a soul!" Zheng Jingzhi said with a smile.

Zhang Zhipeng smiled and said: "Teacher, the future era will inevitably be an era in which everything is intelligent."

"Aircrafts are no exception. With computer assistance, the combat capabilities of fighter jets will inevitably be greatly improved."

"But now there's a new problem."

Zheng Jingzhi sighed and said, "You're talking about radar, right?"

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said: "Yes, our current radar is only a single-pulse radar. The scanning distance is too short. Moreover, it is difficult to lock on enemy aircraft and cannot deal with multiple targets."

"With the current radar level, even after the integration is completed, we still cannot achieve beyond visual range combat."

Zheng Jingzhi said: "It is said that the Doppler airborne radar of the Hoopoe has been decided to be sold to us."

"But we can't deliver it in a short time!"

"I'm afraid I have to wait another two or three years."

Zhang Zhipeng shook his head and said, "Two or three years is too long."

"This has a great impact on the development process of our third-generation aircraft!"

Zheng Jingzhi spread his hands and said: "I can't help it. Currently, other fraternal institutes are developing domestic Doppler airborne radars. The research is indeed progressing, but it has also encountered many difficulties. It is estimated that it will not be possible in three to five years. Make a breakthrough.”

"So it is still unknown when the real third-generation aircraft will be successfully developed!"

Zhang Zhipeng said with a smile: "This problem is quite difficult!"

Zheng Jingzhi smiled helplessly and said: "It is indeed very troublesome."

"However, our task has been completed and can be handed over to superiors for acceptance."

"Go back and write two papers on the operating system you integrated. I will help you submit them to relevant magazines."
